Astounding News That The Media Will Ignore

Take a look at this photo (from former Governor Mike Huckabee's Facebook page):

A gathering of sycophants in Roanoke to hear Barack Obama stick his foot in his mouth again? He could only wish he could draw a mob like that.

No.

It's a photo of a crowd of red-blooded Americans gathered outside a Chick-fil-A, waiting their turn to get inside and do their part to champion FREE SPEECH. A photo that could have been taken outside every Chick-fil-A restaurant in the country yesterday.

“We’ve had over 21 million views on my Facebook page, but this is something not just for Chick-fil-A but for America, and for people who believe the First Amendment applies to everyone, including Christians,” he said.

“I think a lot of people felt that if you’re a Muslim and you take a position against same-sex marriage, Rahm Emanuel will put his arm around you in a public ceremony like he did to Louis Farrakhan the very day he was condemning Dan Cathy, and it’s that hypocrisy and inconsistency and intolerance and bigotry toward Christians that I think people are just tired of.” [link]

A cheer for that which we hold to be precious.

America, I love you.

Meanwhile, in hate-driven city halls in Chicago and Boston and Los Angeles ...
